centex99, welcome to the SEC. Get Ready! It's all about the D in the SEC. I can't wait for my Vols to play the Aggies in College Station. That's a trip I have to make!

boatbum, That's going to be a huge loss for the Hogs. WTH was he thinking...oh that's right, Little Bobby was doing the thinking. Can't say that hasn't happened to me before....but I'm not the highest profile person in the state.

boatbum... there's a couple of very real reason you should be concerned.

1) Spring ball is over, there's no changing the offensive system now

2) Arkansas HAD a really good recruiting class and alot of them have tweeted they are stayin in the program despite losing their head coach....but I wouldn't count on it. I know our Bob............ (Stoops), is probably fishing in Arkansas this week....

3) The most obvious choice for an interim would be Taver Johnson. And that's actually not a bad call...BUT I wouldn't count on Bobby's brother, Paul sticking around for the whole season.... that.....and Taver's offensive knowledge wouldn't fill up a thimble.

The good news..... you have Alabama & LSU at home this year.......Boston Butts are easy to cook......and beer is easy to drink......

Rumor floating around that they are talking to art briles from Baylor. I would expect there are a lot of coaches that want in the sec, but hard for someone to walk in the door during may and have much success.

Afraid this might be a 7 or so win season. That's tough following 11 wins, and a top 5 ranking.

As a life long Arkansas resident and Razorback football fan (64 years and counting) when I reflect on the most recent situation, it occurs to me that this is just another in a long list (since Broyles) of coaching dramas that we've had. Running off Lou Holtz & Ken Hatfield for no good reasons and hiring replacements like Jack Crowe. Having malcontents flying airplanes with banners over the stadium urging the firing of Houston Nutt and the revelations of his indiscretions and obsession with text messaging (Bobby, did you not read the news about that???). This is just another in a long line of dramas that has finally led me to giving up my season tickets this year.

I'm proud of Jeff Long and I think the team will be fine, although perhaps not a national contender as hoped.

That said, I understand that Petrino's wife has left him and moved to College Station - she wanted to get as far away from college football as possible ;-)
